Abstract: This paper aims to provide a secure and reliable solution to the electronic identity authentication in mobile commerce system. The solution is to get high-strength elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) key by generating hash values from dynamic vector collection of fingerprints, which are converted from fingerprint images by randomising angular movement or rotation angle. With the introduction of ECC asymmetric encryption algorithms and SSL-VPN network integration, the proposed security identity authentication of mobile commerce and the processes of access management may well solve the problems of identity control and verification of authorisation management. The hybrid authentication and secure mode not only realises the dynamic binding of login users and the control of role management in mobile commerce but also dramatically reduces the risk of internal identity being tampered and brute forced in mobile commerce system, providing a more reliable security for current business transactions and gross settlement.

Keywords: mobile commerce; m-commerce security; identity authentication; dynamic fingerprint key; access management; elliptic curve cryptosystem; EEC; cryptography; fingerprints; hash values; fingerprint images; identity control; identity verification; authorisation management.
